They're old testament, not new. I have no idea what they think Jesus has to do with any of their activities. Whatâs that old saying? Religion is like a penis, right? I think thatâs an apt description. Religion is like a penis. Itâs okay to have one. Itâs okay to be proud of it, I suppose. Itâs not a bad toy to play with, all things considered. It serves a useful purpose. It makes a lot of people feel better, it gives them release and relief. And itâs been known to make some people very happy â and not just the owners of said organ. Like the banana, it is ergonomically pleasing â as artwork throughout the ages can attest. Many words in song and poetry have been dedicated to descriptions of its phallic glory. Some might even consider it divine. But like anything else, it can be â and often is â abused. It can give joy and contentment, or it can cause the owner a great deal of pain â and no end of problems. When you start obsessing over your organ, worshipping it, preening and polishing and comparing it to others, youâre just jerking off â and you know what religion says about blind self indulgence. If you pull it out in public and start flogging it around and demanding that everybody else bow down before your rampant magnificence, most people think youâre just being a dick. Though, of course, people being people, there are always those who will drop to their knees and swallow whatever it is that youâre handing out. And when you start sticking it into others without their permission, well, my friend, thatâs called rape. more . . .
The Bible contains over 300 verses dedicated to the poor and social injustice. In all of those verses it is clear God is concerned for both; so why aren't those who claim to follow him? Those on the religious right want to defund programs such as Social Security, Medicare, welfare, food stamps, healthcare, etc. What I want to know is: why aren't these so called people of God offering their homes to the homeless, food to the hungry, a coat to someone who is poor and cold? The concept of "it takes a village" was not Secretary Clinton's idea; it originated with the teachings of Jesus. Don't take my word for it, read his words. (In some books they're in red; that should make it easier for you.) http://www.usnews.com/opinion/blogs.../christian-hypocrisy-from-the-religious-right
Yeah liberals are real charitable..... so long as they are doling out other peoples money, and not their own. Out of all of the leftâs discombobulated theoretical constructs, the ludicrous assertion that conservatives simply do not care about societyâs downtrodden is particularly frustrating, as it vehemently denies both reality and logic. On the surface, the notion that liberals are the worldâs most charitable individuals could easily be accepted. After all, many on the left talk quite a bit about helping the poor and providing social safety nets. However, the left rarely explores the negative consequences of its policies. Furthermore, liberals fail to analyze and comprehend their own deficient charitable giving patterns. According to a 2006 ABC News piece by John Stossel and Kristina Kendall, Brooksâ research has shown that conservatives donate about 30 percent more than do liberals. Brooks also claims that financial donations arenât the only difference at hand. When it comes to an issue as random as blood donations, conservatives are about 17 percent more likely than their liberal counterparts to donate blood! But, thatâs not all. In 2008, George Will covered some of Brooksâ other findings. As it turns out, in 2004, George W. Bush carried 24 out of 25 of the states in which charitable giving exceeded the national average Read more: http://dailycaller.com/2010/09/23/s...re-more-generous-than-liberals/#ixzz38icg8UuH
